Protect
We protect redwoods by purchasing redwood forests and the surrounding lands needed to nurture them. Another way we protect forests is by acquiring conservation easements or agreements, which grant the League the legal right to safeguard the forest from harmful land use practices forever.
Our science-based Master Plan for the Redwoods guides our efforts to protect and restore redwood forests. This plan identifies where we need to protect land to strengthen the forests we have conserved since our founding in 1918.
The Master Plan incorporates the theory and principles of conservation biology. These principles guide Save the Redwoods to protect large blocks of contiguous redwood land that embrace the diversity of the forest.
